The three songs featured here today are songs I have been "gbadun-ing" all week long! The first song,
Love, by Mr. Blizz is an acoustic-rich song that describes love based on
1 Corinthians 13, borrowing lyrics from Hausa, Yoruba, English, and possibly another language I am clearly unaware of.
The second song,
In Control Remix, is a remix of the original single by Onos, which had Rooftop MCs collaborating with her on that track. This time around, Onos brings the same level of energy that has become her trademark on this beat-heavy remix, and she is supported by several artistes on this track. It has a pop-feel to it that's bound to get you dancing (at least, in your head, if not on your feet).
Finally, the third song, is a re-make of a classic Igbo worship song. It is called
I bu ngalaba (The Pillar) and it is performed by the talented members of Axios, the
Babcock University choir. The harmonies, song arrangement, and in short, just about every aspect of this song, will make you feel proud to be a Nigerian. There's a nostalgic feel to this song that is unmistakable, and although it is a re-make of a classic, I daresay that this 'remix' is itself a classic. The acapella version of
I bu ngalaba is
included as a bonus download. You're welcome :-)
As usual, just click
Download on each widget, and enjoy them over the weekend (and beyond).
